Gomez being latino not only makes sense due to his name, but due to the fact that The Addams Family was always supposed to be about a family that was the opposite of white America in the 50′s/60′s. A lot of white people at the time were against interracial marriage, so having them be a happy interracial couple fits right in with their legacy. At times in the past he was implied to be a Spaniard, but back then (and even still sometimes today) Spaniards were seen as a little bit too “other” and suffered from xenophobia. Can’t wait to watch Wednesday!

Sometimes I remember Gracie saying people that lived here where so lucky because our food was amazing and we got to eat it every day and I think that's so cute of her to say and also makes me grateful. And uh she was so adorable the whole time, I want to hug her so bad.

I'm just finding out some Spaniards find the word "Spaniard" offensive... Huh?? bitch find a real issue. You've probably heard people speaking negatively of Spain's history and current political affairs (deservedly so) and decided Spaniard is now a bad word, but it isn't, not anymore than Englishman or Frechman.
Gives the same vibes as cisgender people finding "cis" offensive.

I've mentioned on Zorro Discord that non-noble Spaniards preferred navaja knives.
Here is the finale of 'Bodas de sangre' (Bloody Wedding) by Carlos Saura, where flamenco dancers (one of them is the famous Antonio Gades) symbolically depict a fight with such knives.

And there was also el cuchillo and other types of long knives...
A flesh-eating knife
with sweet, murderous wing
keeps flying and shining
around my life.

Let’s talk about slavery with the Taino people
On July 22nd I created a post called “Did the Caribs eat the Taino’s?” and the TLDR version is...no...they didn’t. However I did state I would return to this so here I am.
If you would like to read the first post, you can do it here: Did the Caribs eat the Taino people?
There was a video and it mentioned briefly that the Taino’s were “saved” by Christopher Columbus from the Caribs (Kalinago) who were taking the Taino’s as slaves and the thing about all of this is that Christopher was the one doing the actually slavery. (Shocker, I know)
Now before I begin, there’s a lot of history with just Chirspooper alone that I honestly can’t cover it all in a single Tumblr post and while I love talking about my people, doing these kind of long post takes a lot out of me so if you have specific questions please let me know. I’m not an expert on the Taino way of life, I’m still learning myself, but I do know a few things and would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. So with that out of the way, let’s talk about Chrispoopy and slavery.
It wasn’t supposed to be like this
That’s how it starts and the first thing people say when a good deal goes bad. You see when Chrisdick came over, we welcomed him, unlike the Kalinago who hated him which resulted in misinformation about them because someone got their feelings hurt.
We had no idea who these people were, we had no reason to be hostile. They came on massive boats, were fully clothed, the were interesting so we did what was common in our society, gave them stuff like silver and gold. Why did we gave them silver and gold? We had no need for it. We lived off the island, we hunt, swam, slept outside, we had no desire for silver and gold. We didn’t had an economy and we didn’t had the tools to make the types of weapons or armour the Spaniards had so we just gave them the stuff.
Not only did we gave them silver and gold, we also gave them our woman and virgins. It was to help with relations. Our woman would go with them to this new land, and return us with information, new families, and wonders of the outside...that never happened. Giving the Spaniards silver, gold, and woman, was all in the hopes they would give us something in return, but the only thing they gave was diseases that made everyone sick. They took, and took, and took, and then they left.
When we refused to give them anymore, that’s when things got violent. They pillage our village’s, killed the strongest and told the weak to go digging for more silver and gold. That was when the slavery began, when we didn’t want to give anymore, they decided to take instead.
How could we stop them? They had guns and we had spears and arrows. They made us sick and we couldn’t fight back. They already won the war before it started.
Why do you think Puerto Rico is called Puerto Rico? It literally translates to “Port of Riches” because of how rich it made the Spaniards. Once they were done being rich and taking from our land, they took us instead so we could work for them. An estimated 7-8 million Taino people died in just a few decades. They left the weak alone which is one of the reasons why we’re alive today and why I have Spaniard blood in me.
Some Spaniard sexually assaulted one of my ancestors, left her on Puerto Rico and she gave birth.
In short, Chis the killer did not “saved” the Taino’s from the Kalinago. He killed both of us, and wrote himself as the hero in reality he was always just a loser with a big gun.

I did it!
i finally got my shit together and draw* my oc <3
Tumblr media
a bit of LORE:
ajam...
“Living under the shadow of her daredevil, older twin brother Octane, her life is fully dedicated to her last name: Silva. Graduated as an A+ student with a PhD in Economics, it's still not enough for Duardo to see her as the future CEO of the family company. You see, while growing up, Octane had whatever he wanted instantly, but Seth had to earn it. And she believes Octane's actual position with "popps" belongs to her. That's why she infiltrates into the Apex Games: to kill her blood and claim the throne.
But she's not just some envious little sister, Seth won much of her fortune by making music. She gained recognition collaborating with famous DJ from Solace, Rhapsody. The song went viral and hit the charts, making her first big income at 15 years-old. She then continued collaborating with other artist, but then made a big jump and started her solo career, whether it is playing in classical concerts, making movie soundtracks or hitting the charts with every new single she releases.
Also, she was a classical dancer from age 6 and danced professionally until her 18th birthday. She was first dancer three years in a row and participated in important projects such as ‘The Black Swan’, ‘Four Modern Seasons’ and ‘The Nutcracker’‚ her favourite”.
• Abilities:
Passive “Pitch Perfect”**: can hear footsteps from enemies and recognise some (like Wraith's passive)
Tactical “Ghost Note”: can make her self invisible for 8 seconds, but can hear her footsteps and leave a trace (Bloodhound's passive)
Ultimate “Triplets”: can turn her team into nearby objects for 16 seconds, but with no shields (like Revenant's ultimate)
now, a bit of context of her creation:
It was mid season 12 of Apex (Feb/2022). I was really hooked on the lore and I asked myself "what if he has a sister who wants to kill him? haha" ... and it CLICKED, so I run to my PC and made her in the Sims 4 lol and then, I focused more on writing her background, like:
→ her accent (Spanish from Spain, with a mix of Andalusian)
→ her second name (J is for Jesusa aaaah so good, so español)
→ who raised her and Octane (to me, it was Cecilia, the house keeper, because she formed some kind of bond when they were babies and it was Cecilia's first job)
→ some aspects of domestic violence which Octane went through too (her lip scar, for example, explained in ↓)
→ HER QUEST !!! (yes, I wrote a season quest, I'm that dedicated to my OCs)
→ her relationship with Octane (how it was, how it evolves and how it is)
the * and the other ** (idk the names!!! I'm much more intelligent in Spanish !!11!1):
*draw → I'm not professional and I'm sure I made some mistakes los hombros, but I it's something I've been keeping for myself for a very long time and it was killing me !!!
**Pitch Perfect → I know Rhapsody has the same passive (kind of), but I made her before Rhapsody was released and I've never played Apex Mobile, so it was a bit shocking when I found out lol
I fell in love with her, honestly...
hope you liked her ♥
